Bold values are the worst case: easiest to exploit or largest impact.

Attack Vector: Network: The vulnerable component is bound to the network stack and the set of possible attackers extends beyond the other options listed, up to and including the entire Internet. Such a vulnerability is often termed 'remotely exploitable' and can be thought of as an attack being exploitable at the protocol level one or more network hops away (e.g., across one or more routers).
Attack Complexity: Low: Specialized access conditions or extenuating circumstances do not exist. An attacker can expect repeatable success against the vulnerable component.
Privileges Required: None: The attacker is unauthorized prior to attack, and therefore does not require any access to settings or files to carry out an attack.
User Interaction: None: The vulnerable system can be exploited without any interaction from any user.
Scope: Unchanged: An exploited vulnerability can only affect resources managed by the same security authority. In this case, the vulnerable component and the impacted component are either the same, or both are managed by the same security authority.
Confidentiality: None: There is no loss of confidentiality within the impacted component.
Integrity: None: There is no loss of integrity within the impacted component.
Availability: High: There is total loss of availability, resulting in the attacker being able to fully deny access to resources in the impacted component; this loss is either sustained (while the attacker continues to deliver the attack) or persistent (the condition persists even after the attack has completed). Alternatively, the attacker has the ability to deny some availability, but the loss of availability presents a direct, serious consequence to the impacted component (e.g., the attacker cannot disrupt existing connections, but can prevent new connections; the attacker can repeatedly exploit a vulnerability that, in each instance of a successful attack, leaks a only small amount of memory, but after repeated exploitation causes a service to become completely unavailable).

Detectable: no evidence on record.

Exploited in the wildExploited: no evidence on record.
Not in CISA KEV and no source reports exploitation

A missing step is not evidence of safety. Sources: cve.org (opens in a new tab), the Metasploit, Exploit-DB and nuclei-templates index as of 30 Oct 2026.

Disclosed: The CVE record is public on cve.org. Its publication is t = 0.
Detectable: A public nuclei template can find exposed instances, for defenders and attackers alike.
Weaponized: A Metasploit exploit module or Exploit-DB entry exists (Metasploit scanner modules do not count), or CISA SSVC or the CVSS exploit maturity reports a public proof of concept.
Exploited in the wild: CISA KEV lists it, CISA SSVC rates exploitation active, or a source reports attacks.
Observed by OffSeq Mirage: OffSeq Mirage honeypot sensors recorded attack traffic for this CVE, or found exposed hosts without attack traffic.

Moments are spaced evenly, not to scale; a dashed line marks a gap of six months or more. Deltas count from t = 0. Sources that give only a date (CISA KEV, Exploit-DB, or a time of exactly 00:00Z) read “same day” rather than hours. Metasploit modules carry the flaw’s disclosure date, not their release date, and nuclei templates carry no date, so both appear above but not on the timeline.

AI-suggested

To mitigate this vulnerability, organizations should implement strict rate limiting on authentication requests at the WebSocket API layer to prevent excessive attempts from any single source. Deploying Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) or API gateways with built-in throttling and anomaly detection can help identify and block suspicious authentication floods. Monitoring authentication logs for unusual patterns, such as rapid repeated attempts from the same IP or user agent, is essential for early detection. Employing multi-factor authentication (MFA) where possible can reduce the risk of brute-force success. Network segmentation and limiting exposure of the api.everon.io endpoint to trusted networks or VPNs can reduce attack surface. Vendors should prioritize releasing patches or updates that enforce authentication attempt limits and improve logging and alerting capabilities. Additionally, organizations should conduct regular security assessments and penetration testing focused on authentication mechanisms. Incident response plans should include procedures for mitigating DoS attacks and unauthorized access attempts targeting this API. Finally, educating operational staff about the risks and signs of exploitation will enhance overall security posture.

Description

The WebSocket Application Programming Interface lacks restrictions on the number of authentication requests. This absence of rate limiting may allow an attacker to conduct denial-of-service attacks by suppressing or mis-routing legitimate charger telemetry, or conduct brute-force attacks to gain unauthorized access.

Impact

The primary impact of this vulnerability is on the availability of the Everon api.everon.io service, which is critical for the telemetry and control of electric vehicle charging stations. A successful denial-of-service attack could disrupt the flow of telemetry data, leading to operational outages, inaccurate monitoring, and potential failures in charging infrastructure management. This disruption could affect electric vehicle users, charging station operators, and grid management entities relying on accurate and timely data. Additionally, the lack of rate limiting facilitates brute-force attacks that could lead to unauthorized access, potentially allowing attackers to manipulate charging sessions, cause financial losses, or gain footholds for further attacks. Given the increasing reliance on EV infrastructure globally, such disruptions could have cascading effects on energy distribution and transportation sectors. The absence of authentication or user interaction requirements lowers the barrier for exploitation, increasing the threat landscape. Organizations using Everon's API must consider the risk of service degradation and unauthorized access, which could undermine trust and operational continuity.
